Ambient Drones

(1/8) > >>

Kid Modernist:
Recently I have been getting really into Ambient electronic music. I was just wondering if anybody had any good stuff that I probably haven't heard of that I would like? Also, what is everybody's (who is interested) ambient album? I'd especially like some examples of drone albums that are worth listening to.

I like Loscil, Brian Eno (Another Green World esp.), Boards of Canada.

jariku:
Try every single 7" Drone Records has ever released.

El Opium:
I'm not sure how far into the experimental you're looking to go, but I'm personally quite fond of.
Avarus
Ashtray Navigations
Birchville Cat Motel
Charalambides
Growing
Tim Hecker
Hive Mind (Only if you want to go over to the dark side)
Pan Sonic
Seht
Skullflower (They lean more towards power-drone/noise)
Stars of the Lid
Yellow Swans (Lots of noise elements)

One drone album I can wholeheartedly reccomend to anyone is Fripp and Eno's Evening Star.

amok:
couple of album ideas

Biosphere - Substrata
Robert Rich & Brian Lustmord - Stalker
Stars of the Lid - Avec Laudenum
Stars of the Lid - The Tired Sound of Stars of the Lid
Synaesthesia - Ephemeral
The Orb - Adventures Beyond The Underworld

Avarus is maybe more in the free jazz realm of things, but they're still highly recommended. They're also a good gateway into the Finnish outsider folk/experimental/whatever scene, which includes gems like Kemialliset Ystävät, Es, Hotguitars, Lau Nau, TV-Resistori, Hetero Skeleton, Mohel, Kiila, Space Rocket, Circle and a bunch of other great bands that are even more off-topic.

Yeah, uhm. Future Sound Of London is good for those Ambient moments.
